The Automatic Test Sequence
The GLP2-BASIC utilizes the lean Windows® Embedded. You always have a clear overview of all relevant test results. The clear display of the test sequence enables structured and highly efficient work.
In automatic mode, tests are run semi-/fully automatically. Between all measurement connections connected to the device under test, the tests run fully automatically step by step.
If, for example, the operator needs to manually probe individual measurement points on the device under test with a test probe, an interruption with messages occurs. This lasts until the manual task has been completed. Subsequently, the test continues fully automatically. The test results are automatically evaluated and clearly displayed.
The test sequence is edited by simply adding or removing test steps. This allows the test sequence to be optimally adapted to various requirements. Each individual test step is custom configurable using test parameters.
The comprehensive built-in operator management ensures that only authorized persons can run these changes.
The Input
To edit the test steps, they are simply called up. The test parameters can be conveniently changed, allowing the test sequence to be quickly and flexibly adapted to the respective test task. Every input is immediately checked for plausibility.
The configuration of the test steps is performed directly within the test sequence. A separate test plan editor is not required for this.
For each test parameter, clear explanations are available via a built-in help button, which are displayed with a click.
The test parameters are transparently accessible to all operators; however, changes are reserved exclusively for authorized personnel.

Manual measurement
The GLP2-BASIC provides all built-in test methods individually – as if you had a separate test device for each test method.
No test plan is required for using the unique manual mode. The operator simply selects the desired test method and starts the test device.
The most important measured values are displayed in large digits. Other settings are also clearly visualized. This function is unique and ideal for tests in the laboratory or at the repair station.
The Manual Mode
Select the desired test method and start the measurement. The measurement can be stopped and resumed at any time.
No comparison with limit values takes place. Instead, the measured values and set test conditions are continuously displayed.
During the ongoing measurement, the test parameters can be adjusted via the touch display. This is a significant advantage. Your device under test is continuously exposed to the test condition, allowing you to test it thoroughly and load it for as long as you wish.
Not only the test conditions, such as test voltage and Test current, are adjustable. The displayed Actual values and their physical units can also be switched to suit the desired evaluation.
The functional structure of the test device
SCHLEICH's test technology has proven itself tens of thousands of times in daily use. It is among the most reliable solutions on the market, impressing with high performance, excellent measurement accuracy, and clear added value for industrial test processes.
For time-saving contacting, all Connections of the device under test can be conveniently connected via a contacting adapter. Subsequently, the test device performs all intended tests fully automatically and without manual intervention. This is made possible by the standard, SCHLEICH-typical automatic test method switch-over.
It is particularly economical to connect all test points of the device under test directly to the test device. The system then fully automatically tests all relevant combinations between the Connection points. This significantly reduces the required cycle rate – and thus also the costs per test. The necessary switch-overs are performed as standard via flexible and secure switch-over matrices.
Test Methods
Depending on the configuration of the test device, different test methods are built-in. Each of these test methods provides 2, 4, or more Connections. These lead to the test method switch-over.
automatic test method switch-over
Modular test point expansion | Relay matrices
Switch-over between test stations
For high production volumes, an additional test device is often deployed when the cycle time of a single system is insufficient. However, if the actual test time is shorter than the handling time, including connecting and disconnecting the device under test, then double or multiple stations provide a particularly efficient alternative.
While a test is running at one test station, loading or discharging can occur in parallel at the second station. To eliminate potential electrical hazards for operating personnel, the measurement leads of the inactive test station are reliably and safely disconnected. Furthermore, the connections of the device under test are actively grounded.
Mechatronics | Script Control
With the help of the standard built-in script functions, additional PLC functionalities can be quickly and easily implemented directly in the test device. Similar to a classic PLC, inputs can be queried, outputs can be set, and logical connections can be created.
The economic advantage lies in the direct control of mechatronic functional sequences by the test device. For example, valves can be controlled, limit switches queried, measured values custom evaluated, or further process steps specifically influenced. This allows additional sequences to be automatically integrated before, during, and after the actual test.
This unique flexibility makes the test devices ideal for custom test systems as well as for seamless integration into automated manufacturing processes.

The Test Methods
protective earth resistance test
The protective earth conductor Test is performed with an electronically regulated, constant Test current. From the voltage drop across the protective earth conductor and the flowing current, the test device calculates the protective conductor resistance. This must not exceed the maximum resistance specified in the standards. Using a test probe (to be ordered separately), the operator successively scans the protective earth conductor Connections to be tested on the device under test. The Test is performed between the PE contact in the test socket and the test probe.
more information
Insulation Resistance Test
The insulation test is performed with an electronically regulated, constant test voltage. From the voltage drop across the insulation and the flowing current, the test device calculates the insulation resistance. This must not fall below the minimum resistance specified in the standards. The insulation resistance can be measured both between all electrical conductors (Class I devices) and between the electrical conductors and insulated housing parts (Class II devices). The operator successively scans the housing parts to be tested with the test probe. At the end of the Test, a discharge of the device under test always occurs.
more information
DC High Voltage Test
The insulation test is performed with an electronically regulated, constant high voltage. During the Test, the Test current must not exceed a specified maximum value. If the current rises above the maximum value, the Test is automatically Cancelled. At the end of the Test, a discharge of the device under test always occurs. more information
AC High Voltage Test
The insulation test is performed with an electronically regulated, constant high voltage. During the Test, the Test current must not exceed a specified maximum value. If the current exceeds the maximum value, the Test is automatically Cancelled. At the end of the Test, a discharge of the device under test always occurs. more information
function test
The function test of your device under test is performed under operating voltage based on current consumption, cos φ, and/or power consumption of the device under test. Set values and ± tolerances can be specified for each measured quantity. If the electrical measured value is within tolerance, the test result is GO. The test voltage for the function test with 5 A is electronically generated in the device.
The 5-A Test is specialized for the measurement of very small currents. This allows, for example, very small power outputs to be measured and evaluated for LED luminaires. The test voltage for the 16 A function test is not drawn directly from the mains supply of the test device, but is fed in via a separate test voltage supply line on the rear of the test device. This allows different test voltage levels to be fed in here.
more information
leakage current test
The leakage current test is performed during the function test. It is checked whether the leakage current from conductors L+N to PE (earth leakage current) or to insulated housing parts (enclosure leakage current) is not excessive. The leakage current must not exceed the maximum current specified in the standards. For the Test of the enclosure leakage current, the operator successively scans the housing parts to be tested with the test probe.
more information
substitute leakage current test
"Alternative Method"
The substitute leakage current test is not performed during the function test. It is checked whether the leakage current from conductors L+N to PE (earth leakage current) is not excessive. The leakage current must not exceed the maximum current specified in the standards. For the Test, a low AC voltage is applied to the Connections of the device under test, L+N against PE. The current flowing is extrapolated to the current that would flow at normal operating voltage.
more information
The test protocol
All test results can be output on the modern standard protocol either directly after testing or at a later time. The language of the protocol can be custom selected before output. Protocolling is performed according to IEC 61934. German, English, Chinese, Danish, French, Italian, Dutch, Polish, Portuguese, Swedish, Slovenian, Spanish, Czech, and Hungarian are stored as standard languages.
Paper Printout
Any Windows® 10 or 11 compatible printer can be connected to the GLP2-BASIC. As is customary in Windows®, a click on the printer icon is sufficient, and all measurement results are automatically printed.
Generate PDF file
Upon request, the GLP2-BASIC generates a PDF file that is saved on a USB drive, the internal hard drive, or any network path. Saving to the USB drive is fully automatic in the root directory. No "copy and paste" in Windows® is required.
CSV file generation (optional)
Optionally, the GLP2-BASIC can also generate a CSV file after a test sequence. The file is saved under any network path. The data transferred to the CSV file is freely configurable and can be adapted to your needs.
The GLP2-BASIC Technology Package
The expansion of the GLP2 with the Technology Package fully utilizes the extensive capabilities of Windows®. Display is on an external touch monitor, with the screen layout dynamically adapting to the monitor's resolution. The user interface is even more intuitive and clearer than the standard version. A full-fledged PC is used to enhance performance.
The proven measurement hardware and precise measurement technology are identical to the standard device. The Technology Package represents an upgrade in terms of operation.
Based on the Windows® PC, the large touch display, and the resulting technical possibilities, the user interface is even more informative and user-friendly than before. Our engineers have consistently utilized all modern features of the Windows® operating system. The result is a clear and well-structured presentation, meeting professional standards.
In addition to the standard software functions, a test plan revision, including extensive test plan history management, has been built-in. New or modified test plans can be approved according to the four-eyes principle. The approval of test plans is carried out by another person, not by the test plan creator.
The GLP2-BASIC in the Network
Test plans and test results can be stored locally or alternatively on a central network drive. This ensures high safety for your data and optimal data exchange of test plans between different test systems.
The GLP2-BASIC is network-capable even in its basic configuration. This feature provides the ideal platform for collecting, managing, analyzing, and distributing information.
With an additional Technology Package, the GLP2-BASIC also provides the option for integration into a complex corporate domain and can be networked with ERP, PPS, MES, and CAQ systems. For this requirement, we provide extensively tested, configurable solutions.
Network Failure
Each test device automatically saves local copies of the current server test plan memory to continue working in the event of a network failure.
In the event of a network failure, local test plans are used, and the test results are stored locally on the test device.
After the network connection is restored, the test device automatically transfers the test results back to the server, so that the server memory is up-to-date again.
Complex Global Network for Test Devices with Technology Package
The test devices can be operated in arbitrarily complex network topologies. You can install an unlimited number of test devices at various company locations worldwide and connect them to the central network drive. Our experience in the global networking of test devices thereby gives you the safety to receive the same product quality regardless of the production location. Problems with revising test plans are thus a thing of the past.
Naturally, all test plan, printing, labeling, and statistical tasks can also be run on the individual test devices. However, to avoid disrupting the production process, it is advisable in networked systems to use separate workstations for these tasks.
The PC software editor&printer can therefore be installed on various workstations.
Label templates can also be stored centrally on a network drive. The test device then loads the appropriate template according to the test plan and prints the labels after the test. Central storage on the network drive ensures that all connected test devices always use the same label template.
In the event of necessary remote maintenance, we can temporarily dial into your network and directly access the individual device. We can see the screen content of the device directly. With your permission, we would also have access to the mouse and keyboard. These options are ideal for qualified support. Remote maintenance is, of course, only possible with your access authorization.
PC software editor&printer
Editing Test Plans
Test plan creation often takes place directly on the test device. Alternatively, test plans can also be managed, edited, and saved on a PC using the editor&printer software, which is included free of charge. Creating test plans on a PC has the advantage that ongoing production is not interrupted. Work can continue on the test devices. The software interface on the PC is similar to that on the test device, making operation almost identical and thus easy to learn.
The software is used in two operating modes:
- Data exchange via USB memory stick | Offline operation
- Data exchange via PC network | Online operation
Printing Test Results
With the software, you can easily create and print test protocols. To do this, you import the test results from a test device, filter them according to the tests to be printed, and generate detailed and clear reports.

Areas of application
The GLP2-BASIC is designed for a wide range of applications and can be precisely adapted to your needs through a variety of configurable options. You receive exactly the test device that optimally suits your daily work.
Manual Testing | Test station – Repair station – Laboratory
The unique manual mode allows all test methods built-in to the test device to be applied directly manually if required. Prior parameterization of the tests is not necessary. You simply select the desired test method and start your test. The software, similar to a multimeter, always provides you with the current measured values. An assessment of your device under test is thus possible immediately and in full detail.
Long-term analyses over hours, days, and weeks can also be easily performed in this operating mode.
Semi-automatic Testing | Manufacturing
A typical test in production can be performed manually via test probes or semi- and fully automatically. The GLP2-BASIC, with its flexibility and comfortable operator guidance, is precisely suited for these applications. For testing different devices under test, virtually any number of test sequences can be stored in the GLP2-BASIC. These can be started directly via the built-in touch display, an external PC keyboard, or a barcode scanner.
If required, the test device can directly create a label after the test is completed. Additionally, a variety of order data can be stored, which can be printed on the SCHLEICH standard protocol alongside the test results.
Fully Automatic Testing | Series Production
The GLP2-BASIC can be seamlessly integrated into your production line. The device dimensions are based on a 19″ housing, allowing the test device to fit perfectly into your system. Additional flexible interfaces enable convenient remote control. Connection to a control computer or a PLC is easy to implement.
You can store almost any number of test sequences for different devices under test. Via the interface, you can directly access these and then start the test. All test results are retrievable via the interface and can thus be stored in a central memory via the control computer. Additionally, it is possible to save the test results locally on the test device or directly in the computer network.
For even greater automation flexibility or to control more complex processes, we alternatively recommend our GLP2-MODULAR class test devices. We successfully deploy both device classes in our system solutions.
